Silicon Creations is Fueling Next Generation Chips

Next generation semiconductor design puts new stress on traditionally low-key parts of the design process. One example is packaging, which used to be the clean-up spot at the end of the design. Thanks to chiplet-based design, package engineers are now rock stars. Analog design is another one of those disciplines.

Not long ago,… Read More


Get Ready for a Shakeout in Edge NPUs

Get Ready for a Shakeout in Edge NPUs
by Bernard Murphy on 11-20-2024 at 6:00 am

trackstar in a race min (1)

When the potential for AI at the edge first fired our imagination, semiconductor designers recognized that performance (and low power) required an accelerator and many decided to build their own. Requirements weren’t too complicated, commercial alternatives were limited and who wanted to add another royalty to further reduce… Read More
